AKSOB Future Business Leaders Summer Camp 2026

LAU Beirut Campus

Are you curious about business? Wondering what it would be like to study marketing, finance or management at university?

The Adnan Kassar School of Business (AKSOB) at the Lebanese American University (LAU) invites high school students in grades 10 to 12 to join the Future Business Leaders Summer Camp 2026, a five-day immersive experience designed to bring business to life.

A Comprehensive, Experiential and Inspirational Program

This is not a typical summer program. The AKSOB Future Business Leaders Summer Camp is designed to be dynamic, interactive and hands-on. Instead of simply learning about business, students experience it.

Throughout the week, participants will rotate through AKSOB’s core departments, tackle real-world challenges, compete in simulations and work closely with faculty and student ambassadors.

One Department. One Day. One Real Business Experience.

Each day highlights a different major:

 

Date

Department 

Monday, July 6         Finance and Accounting
Tuesday, July 7                 Hospitality and Tourism Management
Wednesday, July 8         Information Technology and Operations Management
Thursday, July 9         Management Studies
Friday, July 10         Marketing

Every department introduces students to career paths, key skills and real-life applications before guiding them through hands-on challenges and team competitions.
